Nervous (Plus Evil Dead)
Apr. 10th, 2013 03:24 amSo I have my first interview in years tomorrow (or I guess later today would be more accurate.) I've been out of work for a year and half since I moved in with my boyfriend. Before that I was working at my previous job for over four years. I've filled out applications, but never really gotten any call backs. The only time I had a semi-interview was at this restaurant I applied at and the manager ended up talking to me for awhile. He promised to call the next day for an interview, but never did.
I had filled out an application at David's Bridal a few months ago when the store opened up in my area, but hadn't heard back from them. And then I got a call yesterday that they're setting up interviews and to call them back if I wanted to set one up. So I did right away.
I'm definitely really nervous. Mike was trying to give me a pep talk and said to make sure that I talked loud (I tend to talk really quietly and people are constantly missing what I say and asking me to repeat things) because employers want someone who has confidence in themselves. And I'm thinking to myself, "Well I don't really have much confidence in myself." I'm going to try and fake it. I don't think I could do any kind of sales job because I'm not good at trying to selling people on anything, or push anything on anyone. But if they need someone to help pick out dresses that would be good. When I was there trying on dresses a couple of months ago, they had a type of greeter girl who helped get you started with your appointment, and I could do that. I would love to get a job there so I could get a discount on a wedding dress.
I definitely need a job. The pressure that my boyfriend is under trying to pay the bills by himself is way too much and I hate that he has to do it alone.
